Flat Head V8 Running Miniature Model Engine - Block is Only 7" Long! 

If I had one I'd keep it in my cubicle and run it at full-throttle during lunch break

Even though it's displacement is next to nothing, you can't beat the sound of a v8

A lovely piece of engineering, runs really well too.

im an mechanical fitter with a love of the v8 engine, al i have to say is well done gentlemen!

Economics 101 says the price of something is "only what the market will bear." $6500 to one person may mean something totally different to another. Everything is relative. Sure, you can probably buy several real full size engines for that price but since there are only 10 of these in existence the value is only gonna go up,up,up. Great running engine. Thanks for posting.

3:50 that idle sound, sounds so close to a real scaled V8 flat-head ! Congrats man !

Considering this engine was hand crafted and not mass produced its minor flaws should be overlooked it's a work of art and a testament to the master crafter that built it

this engine is beautiful it's a piece of art I wish I could afford to ever own one you are ever talented thanks for the video

Reminds me of an old V8 Pilot of my mums back in about 1950 The Pilots engine was very quiet though. One could fit Offy heads to it as I remember but the Mercury engine was better. OHV. This is an excellent engineering exercise. Well Done.

This is a burst of sound heaven!

the sound on this thing is amazing.

This is simply amazing, oozing with talent and potential - I just wish that someone with this skill will re-invent the carburetor - oh and that sound!!!! Eargasm

Great sounding engine and some good work and time and time gone into it.

Nice work and the sound is great

man does that sound sweet!!

Wow, that is a wonderful little machine.

Would have to be one of the most amazing beautiful works of art I have ever seen..

Are those tubes on top next to the intake the exhaust tubes? This is incredible work!

Wow, that sounds beautiful. I always did like the old flat head fords. :}

This still sounds better than a lot of cars I hear

You need to put that in a badass toy monster truck! Hours and hours of fun lol

Read a lot of the replies ....to sum it up it really sounds great !

Sound's great

What’s the power output? Can you build a charger or a turbo for it as well?

Funny, what was that three times push on the carb linkage.? It doesnt look like a pumper carb.

no, probably just how the carb set up is tuned. it might need some adjusting. basically what can happen is that the engine doesn't get the extra fuel fast enough (hence the delay) and the extra fuel can linger around keeping it revved for a bit. this can be a problem for older cars that use carbs but nowadays they all use fuelinjectors controlled by a computer

That would make the perfect power wheel engine for my kids!!

great sound!

you can use it for either, I've seen som guys take for of them and put them in RC drag cars, pretty crazy

nice work!

The worlds most expensive and awesome cordless drill :P

great idea..wanna see that too..

Freakin' Awesome.... just hearing it cam-idle is music... Curious to know the horsepower... didn't see it mentioned in video notes.

I have one of your original flathead v8 the engine is at least 20+ years old is there any way to determine when mine was built An old man passenger two of them down to me the other is a flathead 4cyl

This is a demonstration of brilliance!

Oh this is just purrrrrrfect

ok now thats cool as hell!! but i question the exhaust next to ur fuel tank..

are there any of these mini motors in like a go kart or something?

Thanks for sharing.

I do see the worth in these engines, the amount of skill, knowledge, and passion it takes to design and build one of them is amazing - in terms of comparing them to artwork is a good point but the return on investment isn't really there... at the $6000 range, a piece of artwork is basically an emotional purchase, at the Million + range, it's a solid investment. I don't see these engines value going up over time... decades, centuries... Art? (painting an example) yes, and it always will.

How the hell do you make the block and crankshaft, i can't find a way to do it...

Still more power than a riced up civic

Yes you can, simply make a block for it to sit on to weigh it down, screw it on and attach it to your bench! Start up whenever you want ;)

$16,500.00

That's so cool.

MAKE MORE!! Or even better make one so that we can build one!!! ;) Definetely, many people is going to buy it! :D

What's the cubic capacity,..and is it a cross plane crank like it sounds?...

this would make a pretty beastly bicycle engine

wow...that is awesome.....

Is the throttle response really that slow, or is the audio out of sync w/the video ?

How much HP does it make ? ? ?

Are the spark plugs made for you?? Or ate they for another thing and buyable??

whats the displacement on this engine?

A part of the video showing how that model was built would be appreciate!

Perfect for 1/4 scale model A hot rod

well it runs now what do you do with it

yes look up the Conley Stinger 609 the super charged version has around 9 horsepower witch is allot for a little motor.

Now put it on a bicycle...

Can someone tell me were I can buy one of those at

Excellent

did this actually have spark plugs etc?

That is one of the coolest things I have ever seen! What is the approximate horsepower of this engine?

I would really like to have one, what is the horsepower/ or Watts of it?

Where do I go to get and assemble a engine like this I want one bad

it can't breathe to good with that closed header,one hole design can it?

is that an os carb off a nitro engine?

how cool is that ?!

Can you tell me where you got it or how to get one I've been trying but I don't want a small toy I want that can you help me out websites or anything. Thanks

are there videos of these little motors actually powering something?

It would look great in my lawn tractor :)

I wanna know how much HP does it make

that was a nice engine to built up a 1:10 cadillac eldo 1959 model!

Music for the ears !

Water cooled or coolant?

is there a miniture rotary engine???

are there any prints I can get?

Y'all know this thing costs $16,500 I could buy a real V8 for less

actually depending on how the crank is configured, cam configuration and the firing order, not all v8's sound the same.

I find more and more people announcing in the comments when they find a ASMR video, that is not meant to be an ASMR video. It helps other people find them.

How hot does it get ?

Nice !!

first minute and a half, ASMR! ASMR!

Where did u get that???

En donde se pueden conseguir estos equipos o motores

Do you still have any left?

Does it use a cam?

Шедевр!

where can i get engines like this ?

where is the exast pips?

where buy this?

does this have the same firing order as a real flathead?

God Bless V8's! We CAN drive them until the end of the world!!! The heck with 4's and electric hybrid crap boxes! Just make these for automotive apps! That sound! Maaaannn...

Are you willing to sell the blueprints? And if so how much would you charge for them?

Someone with a cnc shop should blue print a few 50-1000cc scale model v8 and put them into actual production. They would make very fun little golf cart engines, junior drag engine ect. Might be a neat little nitch market.

torque? HP?

That sounds awesome! Best sounding miniture I have heard yet. I wonder if you could put mini glass packs on it.

is it possible to get building instructions

this will fit in my buddie's honda for sure.

Hmm Awesome ! Now TurboCharge it ! :D

Awesome!
